I can't install Linux on my 2020 Intel MacBook.

If I could, it wouldn't really matter because it's a piece of shit.

Anyways, yeah, the lawsuits.

Regarding a phone, I largely agree with you, but ios feels too restrictive.

Yes Macbook was a steaming pile of shit between 2016 - 2020.

But my Dell Precision laptop (same price) was an even worse piece of shit.

Can't beat the display quality on Macbook.

Not really that important.

My work beater for the last year, the HP elitebook rip off (dev one) IT bought me has a horrible screen but is the best laptop I've used because it is an overcharged beater that plugs into a triple monitor setup at home and a double monitor setup at work.
